I’m currently reading this now and getting in to it.
I’m going to hold off on the TV show though as I recently read The Martian by Andy Weir and it was difficult to not imagine Matt Damon after seeing the movie beforehand.
After that I plan to read:
- The Three Body Problem by Cixin Liu
- Station 11 by Emily St John Mandel
- Ready Player One by Ernest Cline
- The Man in the High Castly by Philip K Dick
- World War Z by Max Brooks
All seem to be highly recommended. I’m especially excited to read The Three Body problem, from what I heard it is about Aliens invading Earth but written from the perspective of China after the cultural revolution which is obviously different from most Sci-Fi being written from a Western perspective. Tested/Adam Savage did a good podcast review of it so as mentioned I’m excited to get in to it after Leviathan Wakes (first expanse book).
